Fridriksson and teammate Sawyer Glick scored 26 and 32 points respectively in Barry's upset win over Auburn, with Glick burying eight 3-pointers in the exhibition. Barry made 16 total 3-pointers on the night.

The duo makes up half of the Barry players that have made more than 50 3-pointers this season. The worst 3-point shooting percentage among that group is 37 percent.

“I’ve seen some film on them and they’re pretty good, but I think we’re a better team guard-wise and big-wise,” UWF senior power forward Darryl Tucker said. “It should be a good game. They’re a really good team.”

Barry earned two wins over eventual SSC tournament champion Eckerd (24-6) in the regular season before suffering a 96-71 rout in the conference tournament final.

Barry enters regional play 7-3 over their past 10 games while UWF closed the regular season and conference tournament on a 10-game win streak.

“I wouldn’t say peaking, I’d just say we’re doing really well right now,” Tucker said. “You never really know. It only takes one game to get out.”
